So I talk to a colleague, he's big and burly, and when we finish talking he gives me a handshake. He doesn't wrap his hand, he just keeps it in a straight line and his fingers were limp. How should I interpret that? I would assume a big person like him would give a firm handshake. Is he disrespecting me? Is he nervous? I don't get it.

To me, a weak handshake shows lack of confidence or someone who just doesn't want to shake your hand. Either way, weak handshakes always stand out to me and say something about a person.

Most likely he is not into handshakes, for whatever reason. Its just something he does, because he was taught. Sorta like "good morning" no one really means it, but they say it anyway.
